Rising Through Shadows

Walking through shadows, searched for light, never clear

Childhood stolen, dreams left in the rear

Every scar a story, every fall a stair

But I keep climbing, I’m still here

Little eyes watching a world so cold

Growing up fast, too young, too old

Happiness was a ghost I couldn’t hold

Lost in the chaos, stories untold

Every loss, every tear, every fight

Built a warrior, forged in the night

Questioning life, what’s wrong, what’s right?

But deep inside, I hold on tight

I’ve been through the fire, yet I remain

Fighting my battle, bearing my pain

Lost many loved ones, but I sustain

Faith in my heart, I’ll rise again

Loved ones gone, echoes in my mind

Trying to find peace I can’t seem to find

Every disappointment, a lesson signed

Still searching for that peace I’m assigned

Every loss, every tear, every fight

Built a warrior, forged in the night

Questioning life, what’s wrong, what’s right?

But deep inside, I hold on tight

I’ve been through the fire, yet I remain

Fighting my battle, bearing my pain

Lost many loved ones, but I sustain

Faith in my heart, I’ll rise again

No giving up, no stepping back

Strength within, I stay on track

Each wound a mark of where I’ve been

But I know, I’ll win

One day, I believe, I’ll see the sun

Heal these scars, become someone

Life’s been tough, but I’ve just begun

To find my peace, my song, my run
